ST 04/2007
(alternative identifier: ST200704)
- is a Marine National Facility 
voyage
Period: 2007-07-16 00:00 to 2007-07-24 00:00 UTC
Duration: 8.00 days
From: Darwin To: Madang
Region: Arafura Sea; Bismark Sea
Ship: Southern Surveyor [details]
Description:
The Cheshire Seamount lies close the the western tip of the Woodlark oceanic spreading ridge where it is actively propagating into continental crust, a globally unusual setting. This project aims to sample the crest of Cheshire Seamount and test the feature for hydrothermal activity. The work is closely related to SS200706, which immediately follows the transit and is an extension of previous MNF voyages led by CSIRO-ANU.
Voyage Objectives
Utilising high resoultion multibeam and sidescan images recently collected and provided by Nautilus Minerals, the primary objectives in this project are:
- To dredge sample the crest of Cheshire Seamount and other volcanic features of interest, with the aim of recovering fractional volcanic rocks.
- To test the volcano and these other features for hydrothermal activity, using CTD-hydrocasts, deep tow video, dredge and grab sampling.
Leader: C. Yeats (CSIRO Exploration and Mining)
Project: Southern Surveyor - general vessel operations, gear trials, etc. [details]
